1 INSPIRATION + APPLICATIONS 1

2 INTRODUCTION THE WORLD S MOST VERSATILE BATTEN SYSTEM Concept Click is specially designed to accommodate a variety of applications. Leading design studios have embraced this system time and again because of its design flexibility, cost effectiveness, and ease of installation, giving designers complete confidence that their designs can be fully realised. In an age when the competition to stand out is becoming increasingly intense, Concept Click empowers designers and encourages them to be bold, independent, and to put their own signature onto their projects. Concept Click is simple. Spring steel clips are supplied pre-indexed and riveted to an aluminium rail according to your specifications, along with the specified material to go into the clips all ready to be installed on-site. 3

3 INTRODUCTION FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION Freedom of Expression is about providing the tools and systems to inspire and empower designers to realise their creative vision. For any essay to be realised, the governing forces need to be identified elements that underpin your ability to successfully design the relevant texture. Material, Size, Shape, and Space are the specific elements in Concept Click that enable you to realise your creative vision. Combined, these 4 elements are powerful design tools; the only limit is your imagination. 5

4 DIMENSIONS OF EXPRESSION Size Each material has its own range of sizes, offering designers the option of realising something refined, chunky, multi-textured, or anything in-between. Sizes can be mixed into virtually any sequence. To learn more about size, see pages Material Concept Click has 3 core materials: Solid Timber, Aluminium, and Acoustic Blades. Each material can be used individually or combined with the other materials. Each material comes in a wide range of colours and finishes. To learn more about material, see pages

5 DIMENSIONS OF EXPRESSION Shape Our curated collection of Shapes has been designed in response to research from leading design studios. Each material has its own unique range of Shapes, and Concept Click offers you the flexibility of designing your own. To learn more about shape, see pages Space Space is the distance designers select between each batten or blade. This interval can be consistent or varied for up to 25 battens, making the sequence 100% unique. 5mm is the minimum gap (there is no maximum). To learn more about space, see pages

6 MATERIAL MATERIAL Like an artist s toolbox, the Material section covers all 3 materials: Timber, Aluminium, and Acoustic Blades. Each material is available in a wide variety of finishes. By having 3 materials and a host of colours and finishes for the designer to use we have aimed to give the designer complete liberty to explore materiality.

7 MATERIAL: TIMBER INTERIOR INTERIOR Aspen Banjo Pine INTERIOR + EXTERIOR INTERIOR + EXTERIOR Blackbutt Burnt Ash INTERIOR + EXTERIOR INTERIOR + EXTERIOR Pacific Teak Spotted Gum Timber INTERIOR INTERIOR The range of timbers used in Concept Click have been chosen for the variety of their individual characteristics (tone, finishing abilities, and application suitability) from a carefully curated selection of sustainable timbers from Australia and around the world. With our own in-house coating department, we are able to apply virtually any type of finish for timber. For exteriors, we offer an oil or oil-film hybrid. For interiors, we have a standard range of vintage, opaque, burnished, or brushed finishes. For large projects, we offer the service of creating virtually any type of finish.

9 MATERIAL: ACOUSTIC BLADE EP108 EP151 EP258 EP295 EP273 EP551 Acoustic Blade Used for interiors, the Acoustic Blade material is exceptional in its ability to absorb sound, allow different colour mixes, and be used in large spaces where you want a very deep fin effect.

10 SIZE SIZE The range of sizes is organised according to material Timber, Aluminium, and Acoustic Blades, respectively. The selection of sizes was chosen based on research (looking at what designers are using, the availability of raw materials, and compatibility across different materials combinations). Having such a huge range of sizes, we have aimed to provide the designer great diversity to create virtually any sequence and texture. 19

11 SIZE Timber sizes Unlike other materials, finished timber sizes are predetermined by nature and the best yield we can get from the tree. The maximum allowable size in the Concept Click range is 42mm x 60mm due to the fact that it is difficult to control timber movement beyond certain sizes. (42mm x 60mm is not available in Blackbutt and Spotted Gum.) 32mm x 19mm 42mm x 19mm 60mm x 19mm 42mm x 32mm 60mm x 32mm 19mm x 32mm 32mm x 32mm 32mm x 42mm 42mm x 42mm 60mm x 42mm 19mm x 42mm 60mm x 19mm 32mm x 60mm 42mm x 60mm Aluminium sizes The sizes in the aluminium range were curated based on 2 principles: to be as close to the timber sizes in the Concept Click range (so they could be used together in a sequence) and as close to standard aluminium sizes in the market. The aluminium battens come standard with an end cap solution so that the installed product looks like a solid profile. Our aluminium sections are extruded and fully closed for the strongest aluminium battens on the market. Custom sizes are available for large commercial projects (minimum quantities apply). 66mm x 25mm 25mm x 25mm 25mm x 42mm 50mm x 62mm 25mm x 88mm 50mm x 112mm 50mm x 162mm Acoustic blade sizes Acoustic Blade is available in 2400mm x 1200mm panels and cut to custom specifications. The designs shown are examples of what can be realised. The blade is inserted into a custom designed U-Channel, which then fits into the Concept Click clip. The deepest blade possible is 580mm. 12mm x 150mm Straight 12mm x 300mm Straight 12mm x 150mm Wave 12mm x 150mm Tooth 12mm x 400mm Straight 12mm x 450mm Brick 21

12 SHAPE SHAPE The shape of a batten can be an important contributor to setting the character of a space, whether you want something soft, sharp or even vintage. Our range of shapes across the 3 materials were developed, on demand for Australia s leading studios. As times change, so will the shapes. Their design is fluid. By offering designers such a wide range of shapes in linear textures, we aim to redefine the language and change the scene and free the designer from using predictable shapes and to embrace the avant-garde. 23

13 SHAPE Timber shapes Timber is one of the most flexible materials when it comes to profiling and creating custom shapes. Custom shapes are available for large commercial projects. Not all sizes are available in each shape (read our Concept Click Design and Installation Manual for more detailed information). Block Flute Dome Peak Aluminium shapes Block and Flute are currently the only shapes available in aluminium. (More shapes are currently being developed.) However, should you have a particular shape you would like to use in your project, you can send it through and we will look at it for you. (Minimum quantities do apply.) Block Flute Acoustic blade shapes Waves, serrations, and bricks (and possibly flowers, trees, and faces) are some ideas for Acoustic Blade shapes. We obtain the material as 2400mm x 1200mm panels in 12 colours and laser cut the shapes. The blade is inserted into a custom designed U-Channel, which then fits into the Concept Click clip. The deepest blade possible is 580mm. (The examples shown are ideas only.) 12mm x 150mm Straight 12mm x 300mm Straight 12mm x 400mm Straight 12mm x 150mm Wave 12mm x 150mm Tooth 12mm x 450mm Brick 25

14 SPACE SPACE Concept Click allows designers to choose their own spacing between battens and mix batten sizes up to 25-sequences long. This is achieved by typing the sequence into our software program, which then precisely indexes and rivets the clips to the aluminium rail. The incredible flexibility and accuracy of our machines allow designers to design batten sequences to custom fit wall spaces, optimize acoustics for interiors, and maximise sun shading and privacy control for facades. 27

15 SPACE: THE CONCEPT CLICK SYSTEM The Concept Click system Concept Click is a system of pre-mounted spring steel fixing clips that grasp specially profiled battens in a simple push-on click action. The designer conceives his or her own sequence using the available elements. Woodform then indexes and rivets the clips to the Ontrax according to the sequence specified by the designer. The battens and Ontrax are supplied to the site as pre-finished components so that the installer simply has to measure, install the Ontrax, and clip in the battens. * * A certain amount of cutting may be required. It may vary from project to project. The Clip Available in 4 widths (19, 32, 42, and 60mm), the clip is a custom-designed, mechanically galvanized and hardened spring steel. Battens are simply rolled or pushed into the clip with one smooth action. Ontrax System Like the clip, the aluminium rail (Ontrax) is a custom-designed track available in a range of sizes and profiles. Each profile has been specially designed to accommodate the variety of applications. 29

16 SPACE: THE CONCEPT CLICK SYSTEM All Rounder Because of its versatility, (ceilings, screens, walls, etc.) the All Rounder is the most used Ontrax in the range. Ontrax Size: 25mm x 12mm External Facades (random lengths) Timber battens need to be joined on 2 clips when using them on an external facade. This Ontrax has been designed to allow for the installer to screw in an extra clip when a join is required. Ontrax Size: 90mm x 12mm Ontrax Range Ontrax is the aluminium rail on which the clip is riveted. These aluminium rails come standard in a matte black powder coat to minimise its visual impact but can be powder coated to virtually any color to fit in with a more unconventional backing material. All 6 Ontrax profiles have been designed to fit in with standard building setups so the architect and installer don t have to create custom detailing. The Ontrax come standard in set lengths of 3.8 metres. Suspended Ceilings This Ontrax has been designed to integrate with standard suspended ceiling components, this section will generally replace the furring channel. Ontrax Size: 45mm x 30mm Acoustic Integration This was designed to perfectly accommodate a 7-mm-thick acoustic backing board, which simultaneously eradicates the need for a plaster sheet behind the battens. Ontrax Size: 73mm x 12mm Curved Walls A super-slim track designed to round the tightest radius (100mm radius). Ontrax Size: 45mm x 6mm External Facades Used when applying aluminium battens or setlength timber battens on an external facade. Ontrax Size: 65mm x 12mm 31

17 Backing Panel A 7-mm-thick PET black acoustic board comes standard with all interior applications. The board is not only a great acoustic solution but also replaces the need to plaster and paint a wall black behind the battens, saving time and money. Acoustics The inherent design flexibility of being able to vary spaces between battens, mix batten depth, and use a quality acoustic backing material gives you the ability to achieve virtually any acoustic rating, as well as execute the design aesthetic. Solutions and Added Benefits Concept Click is not only an inspiring design tool allowing the designer to create beautiful textures, it s also a holistic solution to acoustic control and external corner issues. Our acoustic and corner solutions have been designed to fit in with standard building setups so the architect and installer don t have to create custom detailing. External Corner Solutions Vertical Battens Within the Concept Click range, there is a custom-designed aluminium trim for external corners when using vertical battens in timber or aluminium. The solution has been designed so that the corner appears seamless and fits within almost any batten sequence. There is a large size range of square inserts in both timber and aluminium. 33
